Today I have swatches of the newest collection from HARE polish: The Tropics are Calling. This collection contain five gorgeous and unique shades.

Side note: Apologies that all I've done are swatch posts lately. I have been way too busy lately, but I plan on taking parting in the 31 Day Challenge starting September 1, so tons of nail art is coming! Don't worry :)

Windestine is one of the first brand of indies that I ever purchased, and I'm excited to show you these! Each of these polishes are inspired by Little Women.

Peacekeeper consists olive green, pale pink, and lavender glitter in a light grey crelly base. This polish was inspired by Meg in Little Women, who is the second mom to the girls, always trying to keep peace amongst them.

I used four coats in the photos above, but I think you could get away with three. The formula was a little thick on this one, but not too bad. I really love the addition of the olive green glitter. They're really tiny and it kind of gives the gray an overall olive grey appearance.

Heartbeat consists of purple, magenta, and copper glitter in a purple crelly base. This polish was inspired by Beth in Little Women. The vibrant glitter colors represent her good heart and the way she can brighten other people's lives.

I really love this one, so gorgeous! I used three coats for the photos above and the formula was pretty good. I just really love how the pink glitter shimmers in the purple base.

Kizuna consists of purple, green, and copper glitter in a brown crelly base. This polish was inspired by the strong family bond that is represented in the book Little Women. Like roots in the ground, each family member supports and helps each other grow. 'Kizuna' means 'bond' in Japanese.

This might just be my favorite of the bunch, I don't own anything else like it. I think it will be especially perfect to wear in the fall. I used three coats for the photos above and it applied like a dream, so smooth and not too thick/thin.

Windestine polishes can be purchased on etsy. Don't forget to give them a like on facebook :)
